Thanks. Do you have any idea on identification system in automated ground combat system? For example in airwarfare we have IFF to check if its a friend or foe. Do we have similar system for ground combat. Curious about the same.

It reads

"Generally, the vehicle will have a set of sensors to observe the environment, and will either autonomously make decisions about its behavior or pass the information to a human operator at a different location who will control the vehicle through teleoperation."

So, it can operate autonomously, but also has a control mode with a man in the loop.
